"Yunyan, I'll wait for you downstairs."

Jiang Xiaoliu rushed to the hospital, stood downstairs in the inpatient department, and sent a short message to Su Yunyan.

He promised Su Yunyan, and the two of them would not call her Dean Su in private, so as not to call Su Yunyan old.

A cloud of smoke shows that the relationship between the two is closer.

"Okay, I'll go downstairs right away."

Soon, Jiang Xiaoliu received a reply message, and on the way here, he had already thought about telling Su Yunyan frankly that he wanted to apprentice to Zhong Wuving.

Yesterday on the way back, Jiang Xiaoliu wanted to say something, but at that time, Su Yunyan received a call from her grandfather that something had happened, and her anxious look made Jiang Xiaoliu really unable to speak.

Now, Jiang Xiaoliu has promised Zhong Wushu that he will follow Zhong Lao to the sect to apprentice in ten days, and he naturally has to tell Su Yunyan about it.

After waiting for a while, Su Yunyan walked over quickly.

Perhaps because of her sleep, Su Yunyan's face looked better, she was wearing dark purple casual clothes, stepping on a pair of white sneakers, and putting her hair in a bun.

At the moment when he saw Jiang Xiaoliu, Su Yunyan didn't want to let Jiang Xiaoliu's emotions of worrying that his grandfather hadn't woken up yet, so he squeezed out a smile and said, "I'm a little hungry, can you accompany me to eat something?" ”

She kept her mouth shut and didn't talk about her grandfather and brother, and in Jiang Xiaoliu's distressed gaze, Su Yunyan grabbed Jiang Xiaoliu and walked outside the hospital.

Both of them are Internet celebrities, in order not to attract attention, the two put on masks, led the way by Su Yunyan, walked through a street, and came to a relatively remote alley.

Along the way, Jiang Xiaoliu didn't ask where he was going, when he walked side by side with Su Yunyan, he would often sneak a few glances at her, and he didn't know if he would have the opportunity to see Su Yunyan again when he went to the sect to apprentice in the future.

If you can take a few more looks, count a few glances!

Jiang Xiaoliu was bitter in his heart, after getting along for a while, he was almost inseparable, and he found that he was very reluctant to leave Su Yunyan.

"Come on, it's in this yard."

The two came to a courtyard in the alley, Su Yunyan pointed to the somewhat yellowed wooden door, looked at the two knock rings on the door, and said with endless aftertaste:

"This is the yard I used to come to when I was in high school. The courtyard is deep and desolate, and it is a wonderful feeling to eat nostalgic dishes in the wing of the courtyard. ”

As he spoke, Su Yunyan knocked on the iron ring, knocked on the wooden door, and stretched out his hand to pull Jiang Xiaoliu into the courtyard.

Entering the courtyard, Jiang Xiaoliu found that the courtyard was very large, and behind the wooden gate was a long stone road, and on both sides of the road were planted low trees that could not be named, and the stone road meandered to the rear.

The one who opened the door was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man, he was wearing a set of chef clothes, and when he saw Su Yunyan, he smiled kindly: "I haven't seen Miss Su for a long time, you are still so flawless." ”

Su Yunyan took off his mask and smiled faintly: "Uncle Li, you still like to joke so much, I'm embarrassed by you." ”

Li Haorong said: "What I said is the truth. ”

Immediately, he looked at the man brought by Su Yunyan, and recognized Jiang Xiaoliu at a glance, who was currently in a mess.

But Li Ronghao was extremely calm, he didn't greet Jiang Xiaoliu, and he didn't ask Su Yunyan who he brought.

He pointed to the back of the stone road and said, "Miss Su, please, are you still the dishes?" ”

Su Yunyan's expression darkened a little, but in front of Jiang Xiaoliu, she quickly adjusted her mood, nodded and said, "Then it's troublesome Uncle Li, it's still the four of my mother's favorite dishes." ”

Li Ronghao hummed and said no more, turned around and walked to the back of the courtyard.

Su Yunyan and Jiang Xiaoliu followed.

Turning the fan-shaped fence and bypassing an artificial waterfall, a different kind of courtyard came into view.

Jiang Xiaoliu looked around and found that the small courtyard was filled with the breath of the temple, there was a Buddha and Guanyin, which was located in the four directions of the small courtyard.

Due to the exposure of the outdoors, the outer layer of the Buddha statue has fallen off a lot, and the dust and the withered yellow leaves in the courtyard are flying together, making this courtyard particularly desolate.

Li Haorong ignored this scene, led the two to a side room on the left, and then went to the kitchen on the right to cook the meal.

"It's a poor environment." Su Yunyan said: "Si is a burrow, but I am Dexin." ”

Jiang Xiaoliu hummed in agreement, there was only a two-seater wooden dining table and two wooden chairs in this room.

On the wall, there are some Buddhist Zen verses, and at the unopened window, there is a portrait of a woman enshrined.

The woman in the painting turned her back and slightly turned her head sideways to reveal a small part of her face, her appearance could not be seen from the painting, but Jiang Xiaoliu clearly felt that the person in the painting was definitely a shy flower.

The figure in the painting, dressed in a long skirt, stands on a high pavilion that resembles a small courtyard, and the smoke under the pavilion envelops the mountains below the pavilion.

"Yunyan, who is this woman?"

Jiang Xiaoliu noticed that Su Yunyan was also looking at this painting with a complicated expression, and looking at it, her eyes turned ruddy.

"She's my mom!" Su Yunyan said sadly: "I haven't seen my mother, according to my grandfather, my mother died the day after she gave birth to me, and my mother only left this painting, so that I can always remember her." ”

Jiang Xiaoliu's heart was sour when he heard this, he understood Su Yunyan's pain, because he had never seen his biological mother.

"I don't know what's going on, my grandfather doesn't like my mother, and he doesn't tell me why my mother died." Su Yunyan held back her tears and said sadly: "Grandpa doesn't allow my mother's portrait to stay in the Su family, so I can only put the portrait on Uncle Li's side." ”

Looking at Su Yunyan's sad look, Jiang Xiaoliu wanted to stretch out his arms to give her a warm hug, but he never dared to take this step, so he had to look at Su Yunyan silently.

He was waiting for Su Yunyan to pour out his emotions in the narration, and Jiang Xiaoliu knew that Su Yunyan missed his mother, so he would bring him here.

"Uncle Li just now is the chef who was married by my mother, my mother is from the Central State, married my father and came to the Western State, my mother is not used to eating the spicy food in Xihe City, so she brought Uncle Li over."

Su Yunyan said: "Uncle Li was loyal to my mother, and after my mother died, he bought this yard and lived here alone. When I was in high school, after learning something about my mother, I came here and found Uncle Li. ”

Jiang Xiaoliu snorted, making Su Yunyan feel that he was listening very seriously.

"Since then, I have had time to come and see Uncle Li, and Uncle Li has made me my mother's four favorite dishes." Su Yunyan thought of her mother sadly, slowly closed her eyes, and the tears in her eyes couldn't hold back after all, slipping down from her beautiful face.

Jiang Xiaoliu stretched out his hand distressedly and gently wiped away Su Yunyan's tears.

Su Yunyan did not refuse Jiang Xiaoliu, but suddenly hugged Jiang Xiaoliu tightly.

This move made Jiang Xiaoliu's body tense instantly, and he smelled the body fragrance belonging to Su Yunyan, as well as her solid body temperature.

I only heard Su Yunyan sobbing and said: "Uncle Li told me that my mother has no quarrel with the world, is in good health, and will never die suddenly, she must have been killed." Xiaoliu, can you help me find out who is the real murderer of my mother? ”

Jiang Xiaoliu's originally straight hands had nowhere to put them, and when he heard Su Yunyan's cry becoming more and more obvious, he put his arms on her back and patted softly: "Yunyan, I will help you without hesitation, just ......"

He just wanted to say that he was about to follow Zhong Wudi to the sect to apprentice, and when he didn't have time to help Su Yunyan find out the real murderer recently, Su Yunyan suddenly burst into tears and laughed, hugged Jiang Xiaoliu tighter and tighter, and said:

"I knew that you would definitely help me, Xiaoliu, and I found that I was already very dependent on you."

As she spoke, Su Yunyan's delicate body suddenly trembled, and she realized that Jiang Xiaoliu's clapping hand had been placed on her waist at some point.

As a result, an unprecedented sense of electric attack spread throughout his body, Su Yunyan's face flushed, and his breathing intensified as he exhaled.

"I ......"

Jiang Xiaoliu was very embarrassed, as soon as he was excited, he couldn't help but hug Su Yunyan tightly. But feeling Su Yunyan's shortness of breath, he hurriedly wanted to push Su Yunyan away.

But Su Yunyan hugged him tighter, only to hear Su Yunyan say sadly: "Don't let go, hug me, just hug me for a while, okay?" ”
